Just ignore all those tracking message you see, you will just notice date changes from the time to time..there tracking system is not reliable, but you will get your stuff..It takes an awful long time with Geekbuying..

Thanks,
The phone came with 7.3.6, and I did OTA update to 8.1.1.0,
Would try and do as you requested but I've not cut the sim to nano,
Was a little relieved to see the Glo signal in manual search as my sis Informix zero 3, didn't have the Glo 4G signal, so it's definitely not hardware issue.

Thanks a bunch, you've been very helpful .

Best Regards

Confirm your glo sim is 4g lte sim

it means Singpost does not actually have possession of this package but had bin notify about the shipment of your order. I had same issue after providing tracking number which always display information received for 2 week plus , I quickly write to them declaring my annoyance with their false tracking number and my order was actually ship the 3rd day which was on the 16 of this month. The information am receiving now is dispatch to over sea destination country Nigeria. So I would urge u to write to them regarding ur order and how disappointed u are with their service. I assure u ur order will be quickly tend to.

Nigerian youths always seems to amaze me!! grin
Please what is false about the tracking number?? You people you check out samples before claiming its false, I have more than 20 Singapore tracking number, I know the pattern they use.. Its normal for all Post, whenever you receive a tracking number there's a 10% chance that its FAKE.. It takes 2-5 days for it to update, that's why the first thing u see for Singapore post is information received, why is because they have be notified about ur tracking number, but they have not received the physical package as time goes on it updates..
Same thing with PostNL, its show Pre-advised after 2-5 days, same thing with swiss post, Sweden post and for China post it shows Electronic information received.
I dunno why people are bad washing GeekBuying!! Seriously I dunno, before u buy anything from there there's a notification that's shows items would be shipped after 2-7 working days. So whenever u are buying from GeekBuying put that behind ur mind.
Even on Aliexpress some store takes 5-7days to ship out so why the surprise.
I bought from Banggood lately they used Swiss post it took 24 days of tracking before I could get the package.
These stores are trying for African, Go and try USA stores and see if you would not pay for shipping through your nose..!

loll at first u claim it take 2-7 working days to ship order on geekbuying in my own scenario u can help me to calculate the working days from on the 13/11/ the day i made an order to 25/11. When they claim the shipment of my order. On DAT same day (25/11) I order for oukitel u7 plus on aliexpress which was ship on 26/11 . while on the 7/12. I received a call from post office saying that I have a percel with dem at first I thought it was d fone I ordered from geekbuying but on getting dere it turn out to be the fone I order from aliexpress. Back to my topic, On that very day I tried tracking my order from geekbuying which was on 7/12. Still receive the same information had bin receiving from d very first day dey claim to have ship my order(information received this is not .......) Surprising on the 10/12. I tried tracking my order again but all I could see was there is no package found using both Singapore tracking site and 17track(including 11,12,13to 15), the following day I decided to make my voice heard by sending them a meesage regarding the tracking number and site, and I was replied on the 14/12. That I should exercise some patient that it might be an error from the tracking site . on 16 Wednesday. It was updated with despatch to oversea, if truly it has bin ship all dis while by now the fone should have bin in Nigeria.

Am not here to argue with u about GeekBuying, all I would say is that Singapore post has it own issues, so as many other Post, once your package had been shipped out there's nothing GeekBuying/Aliexpress or any other site can do..
This is Christmas season, so many things happen, so many packages would get missing, Rejected and so on..
Whichever scenario you fall into, u have to be patient

Bros complaining won't hasten your shipping speed.. Trust me, I have been through that path before.
I remember doing such to one store on Aliexpress after shipping my item for 7days, he got annoyed with my complaints, cancelled my order and refunded me back my money..
Always make sure that what you are buying is in stock, and it comes with a registered tracking number..
If ur item is on presale, trust me, no matter how long u complain, u have to wait for the item to be in stock before it can be shipped out or you collect your money back.

Ure very right..I sent both geekbuying and Singapore post countless messages from last night to ds morning,at first signpost said dey only received electronic information and not the physical item dt I should urge d sender to send dem my item.. Ds morning I had a chat with geekbuying and I was told my order has bn in transit since 7days ago..singpost later updated d tracking number to dispatched to oversea country NG...at least my phone will arrive by January.. My last time of shopping with geekbuying and singpost, both of them are mad.

How reliable is this Geekbuying? I am still skeptical about trying them yet.

Please once you receive your package, remember to give the seller a negative rating so that intending buyers will not fall victim to this. If they are not ready to do business, they should kuku close shop. Imagine if you had not complained.

From my experience, AliExpress Standard Shipping is the fastest free shipping method.....
.... Check the shipping options before buying from any store

Does this shipping option track to Nigeria at all times or occasionally? I read online that sometimes the shipper may use Registers postal parcel or ordinary mail?

Maybe not always available;

The point is to pay attention to not only the differences in price but also their shipping methods.

Most other free shipping will indicate delivery period of 45-60 days

AliExpress Standard Shipping usually indicates 20-35 days.(The seller sends the item on time)

Before you place your order, you should fill up your details, which include your address. You may need to include the post code of your location (you can search that out from the Internet). You are not expected to spend more than #500 for pickup, which of course is for handling.
Thanx for ur response.

1. They ship to the post office nearest to your address
2. Mi max is the best Xiaomi mid range (high mid range) phone. It seats majestically between flagships and mid rangers. It also has the best battery endurance rating of all Xiaomi phones.
3. Diamond bank won't allow foreign transactions except maybe with a domiciliary account which should cost almost twice as what banks like Gtb and Access have to offer using their Visa and Master cards.
